September 19, 2011 3:52 pm You're overthinking it. Just got with it. ;)

September 19, 2011 3:38 pm I really wish Marvel would drop this double shipping of books initiative they started. DAREDEVIL is the only Marvel book I'm currently reading because I can't afford the other marvel books I would enjoy because of my budget constraints. That being said, I can't complain about back-to-back weeks of Daredevil.

Batman Year One was the comic that got me reading comics full time.  Not only is it my favorite Batman story, it's my favorite comic period.

I love Ghost Rider, but as an earlier poster said Jason Aaron effectively ended the Ghost Rider story for me.  I think this is where I walk away.

May 12, 2011 9:38 am @stuclach:  I should clarify -- My statement was merely an observation, not my opinion.  On average most comic fans hold the opinion that the DCU is confusing and that Marvel has better characters.

And yes, there are loyal DC readers, just not as many as Marvel.

May 12, 2011 9:17 am Marvel sells better because they have something DC doesn't -- brand loyalty.  Because of price hikes most readers have dropped DC and independent books in favor of the core Marvel titles so they can stay in "in the know".


DC does well in the top ten because most readers will dip their toes into the DCU, but only a small minority will buy the mid-to-lower tier books that don't "matter". 


Sadly, DC will always play second fiddle regardless of price of quality, because they have a reputation of having an impenetrable "universe" full of "cheesy" super heroes.

April 28, 2011 11:10 pm I honestly don't see the big deal.  He's not denouncing America, he just wants the freedom to do what he feels is right without worrying about someone accusing him of being a puppet.

That being said, I have no interest in reading about Superman dealing with global issues or taking long walks to get in touch with his feelings.  I think they should just Brand New Day this shit and get back to basics and tell fun stories.  I don't need Superman to teach me life lessons.
